Active directory/Dns server quarrel

$
0
0

Configuration:

2 windows server 2012 Domain controllers 

multiple synology rack storage stations

42 work stations connected to domain

Issue: 

The synology storage station can connect to an AD Server and authenticate via DNS, problem is that it only accepts ONE ip for the DNS server. This proves useless because i have 2 domain controllers and in the event of say DC1 was to fail and DC2 was to stay up and if the synology station was pointing to DC1, any network shares will become unresponsive on the workstation side because the synology station will be unable to authenticate the user to the domain. 

Is there any way to create a VIRTUAL DNS server that is shared by both domain controllers so that if one fails the DNS will stay up because the other DC is still up ?

Thanks
